For my part, I hold with Deleuze and Guttari’s opinion that Art is concerned with precepts and affects and their ability. This means that Architecture is not necessarily Art, though it certainly can be and certainly the value of Art in Architecture is important. I am not one to hold that Architecture is only an Art, for Architecture includes much more than Art, both in constraints and in scope, Architecture addresses more than the limited, but very intense, subjects of Art.
Comments on ART TO ARCHITECTURE « LEBBEUS WOODS
ART TO ARCHITECTURE « LEBBEUS WOODS – Lebbeus Woods asks the question about the relationship of Art to Architecture. He points out that as the arts like painting and sculpture became less integrated with Architecture, they actually gained a more direct influence on architecture. Suddenly Art could be used as a direct inspiration for Architecture. It is certainly an interesting observation.
